Warrior of Life

March 24, 2010
A man cannot walk this treacherous life alone,
There must be another with him.
One who is their friend, their mentor,
One who is their guiding presence,
Who shows them the path of goodness,
Even if it’s hard.
One who has open ears and a forgiving heart,
Yet has the power of authority on his shoulders,
Is one wanted, and is one loved.
But who is this man? Who is this mentor,
The friend, the guide, the authority?
By what name do we call him?
This is the name of the self-chosen warrior – Father.

Christ Follower Husband to Lori Dad to Josh & Austin Dad in Love to Dusty & Cyndi Stage 4 Colon Cancer Survivor Music Executive Red Sox Nation Roll Tide I'm married to my best friend in all the world. She still takes my breath away. After 31 years she still finds ways to amaze me. I'm a father to 2 sons who constantly drive me with their creativity and passion. They are both godly men and brilliant nusicians. I'm looking forward to seeing what they will do with their talents. Who knows maybe one day they'll hire me. I have been in the music business 25 years. Change is the only constant. I still get up in the morning excited about where we can go today. Music still touches the soul. It's still all about the song. Since my diagnosis 6 years ago with Stage 4 Colon Cancer, I've become involved with Livestrong. Everyday, cancer kills 1,500 Americans— one person every minute. This year, more than 550,000 Americans and six million people worldwide will succumb to this vicious disease. One out of three women and one in every two men will be diagnosed in their lifetimes. Who will you wear the yellow for?
